Ticks are the tiny arachnids found in woodland areas that feed on the blood of mammals , including humans. This bite often go unnoticed and the tick can remian feeding for several days before dropping off. The longer the tick is in place , the higher risk of it passing on the infection. Infected ixodes ticks are often found on deer.
